My fiero at 80mph feels like im riding on 40 inch balloon tires. I was wondering why this happens and also my 03 Dodge Ram 1500 at 80 seems like it set in stone anyone who know aerodynamics wana tell me why heres a pic of basically what my truck looks like(mine is red and has wider tires...also 3 years older but still same basic shape)

Well-the truck weighs more than twice the Fiero
and the Fieros get "light" in the front end because of underhood air pressure and remember the engine is in the middle.
front hood venting and adding a nose scoop is the answer to what you are probably feeling.

Not to mention the truck has a stiffer suspension that's not twenty years old.

First try checking the air pressure in all your tires. It makes more of a difference than I used to be willing to admit.
